chillyphilly's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Madness Invasion]

Nice mate

Really good to see more and more artists straying away from the traditional madness style and sticking with their own and adapting it with their own madness characters.
Cool original fight sequences too, and especially loved the delirious grey dude, that was brilliant and nicely animated.

But I have to agree with the guy below referring to the fighting being sort of awkward. The animation was very smooth, but it lacked something. They felt somewhat stiff, especially in the beginning. I think it had something to do with how upright and emotionless the characters were most of the time. They don't really look like they're trying all that hard to fuck each other up.

But aside from that it was fun to watch, well done mate.

Ypok responds:

More body language. That's it.
Thanks for pointing that out for me.

[Hoodoos]

Brilliant

This was some amazing work.
Beautifully smooth animation and really loved the way the beings reproduced in that escher style haha.

Fav'd for surrrrrrrrrrrre.

VillainousTurtleSLC responds:

Thank you!

[FC Tells Da Truth]

:D:D

Haha, fuck I love your animations you crazy, crazy man.

Catoblepas responds:

Objection to thissss

[School Fool]

Yeah fo'shizzle...fo'shizzle ma nizzle

Keep up the good work!

These little shorts of yours are great, the voice acting was perfect.
I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before but it looks like your style is heavily influenced by Ed Atlin. Not saying that's a bad thing because he's brilliant :P
Sorta has that hilarious awkward and random humour and over-the-top dialogue, but without as much swearing.

I love you Snubby :D

Snubby responds:

Yep it's very influenced by ed atlin. Lately though I've tried to move away from tweening characters at all.

[Harry The Harlequin Fetus]

Yes!

Haha that was great!
Fucking loved it man. I especially like the part where the doctor was running through the hospital. You animated it perfectly. Made me feel a tad dizzy/drunk ;D

Awesome!

Catoblepas responds:

:D Thanks man.

Yeah that part made me feel like I was on a rollercoaster when I made it.

[Webcamoose!]

...and BAM!

Newgrounds didn't know what hit it. :P
Brilliant man, I knew this thing would go far. Refreshing, creative and funny.
I hadn't seen those little cut scenes in between and they were awesome, animated really well. All that hard work and those all nighters have paid off ;)

You inspire me!
^^

BritishMoose responds:

I think you're my number one fan! The all-nighters woulda been helluva lot more dull if you hadn't been on msn to keep me going. Thanks very much mate, your support's highly valued :)

[Abortion Shark is Hungreh]

Hahahahajavascript

Haha, very funny indeed.
I've never seen that style of graphics before, so it was pretty refreshing...and cool.
Cool effect with the 180 of the room and stuff, and the shark....i burst out laughing (in my head) when the music started with the shark, and then right at the end where he just plows into her.
I don't know but you're very good at these parody/random/funny short flashes.
You're dialogue and stuff is quite funny.
Good work.

Now, how 'bout that game of Wii? :P

Sticky responds:

Alright. I'll fire up my copy of smash bros. brawl right now.

[Bleed]

hrmm...

I guess it's okay for a first flash.
- Clean up your graphics, take it slow and pay attention to detail.
- I thought the timing and direction wasn't so great. Experiment with your tools. Use different camera angles in the same scenes, use pans, zooms, and such to both liven everything up so it's not as dull. And the same with your animation.
- Not everyone in the world is going to like your movie, which means not everyone is going to give you a good review. You can't call someone ignorant because their opinion is different. BassMasterFei had a valid point, take note of it and use his critique to improve on your next installment.
- To me, there wasnt much substance in this. At first it felt like just random scenes of torture, until it got to the end where there was a tiny hint of some sort of story developing; even if it was very similar to the Saw movies.
- As some other's have said, it needs some more emotion/ reactions/ expressions. No looks of terror while a saw is about to drive threw his head, and I'm pretty sure you would be standing completely still whilst getting electrocuted and then nailed to a cross.

Anyway, good luck with your sequel, I'm hoping for something very good from what I've been reading eg. "It will blow your fucking mind!"
Don't let us down.

TheL1st responds:

i think the reason the first one was so poor , plot wise was because i didn't actually write it until i had started making it

the second i wrote first and feel its much better

i am also listening ot you guys

defiantly adding more emotion and closer up shots

the only reason i flipped out on bassmaster was because he didn't really back up his point

i respect your review because you didnt just sya what was worng with it you gave constructive crit

[Two-Hour Time Trial II]

Pretty cool

That was cool, a lot of great pieces you had going. Good idea for a theme, as it could let everyone's imagination pretty much run wild.
I thought Coaly's was the best. Loved the psychedelic effects.

Damn I wish i took part in this one :<

Nice work!

Rudy responds:

Thanks!

[Nuclear Freddy 2]

Haha Awesome!

Once again man, nice work!
I really enjoy your style of animating. Cool characters and effects, and music fit this more action orientated part, and nice idea with bringing back the tennis racquet.
So is this becoming a sort of series...with a storyline and everything?
It's looking great so far.

BritishMoose responds:

Thanks for the continued support mate, it really does mean a lot :)

I'm not sure whether it'll be a series...I think for the moment it will remain a collection of non-related shorts which utilise the same characters, but it may possibly evolve a bit and end up with some epic story - we'll see!
:D
Thanks for the review, Chilly ^^
